I think they very much want to, but what can you do if all of your IPs lead to tor exit nodes?
From what I've heard, the FBI will collect a whole bunch of information and then sit on their hands because of the above reason.
- 77pt77 10y agoHow can tor nodes be used for that? Tor exposes a SOCKS interface, you can't control TCP/IP with the level of detail needed to perform these attacks.
- gizmo686 10y agoRun the attack itself from a botnet of hacked computers, with the command and control server proxied behind TOR.
- pbhjpbhj 10y agoNaive response: FBI can probably monitor both sides of those nodes (tap the data centre?) if they're in USA? So can't they monitor all the nodes clients, then do something like block returning traffic and look for timing or other meta data of the re-request from the command server? Anyone tell me how reasonable that is?
